Meet Mike :) and a peek at my wip painting!

Mike is my friend! He is always with me…when I crochet, when I paint, when I sew and when I surf the net…

He lives in my craft room and he is very faithful 🙂

He was the first thing I crocheted 7 years ago without following any pattern … I kind of invented him 🙂 and I did not write its pattern anywhere, I did not have at that time a blog and you, my virtual friends, to share with …

He is not very beautiful, I don’t know exactly what he is…a monster? a strange creature? an animal? but I love him very much and I kind of talk to him during my craft time … He knows all my secrets…

He is saying : Hello! to you… He loves you already 🙂

 

After meeting Mike today, I want you to take a look at my wip painting…

It is not something WOW! but it have a soothing and calming effect on me…

Mixing colors and spreading them on a white canvas gives me a certain peace of mind I can not describe 🙂

It relaxes me as much as crochet and takes out all the stress of a gray day 🙂

This will become (I hope so :D):  flowers in a vase and it is called: flower power !! hehe (I’ll show it to you when it’s done!)

Hope you like!

BIG BIG BIG kisses 🙂

Melody

Hello!

My name is Melody 🙂

I was made yesterday for a little 5 years old girl who was stuck at home with a bad “gastro-enterite” and who needed a little company…

I was sewed with soo much love…

I made also some new friends…

The little girl is feeling much better today and she can now play with me ! Youpiii!

Houses

Good morning !

This week end I enjoyed sewing small houses …

I saw this so cute pic of the cover of this book I ordered from amazon (but I did not received the book yet) and I could not resist making one of these cute houses…

I enjoyed so much the whole process that I made another one too…

They are so simple to make and I really love this childish style 🙂

And as I am still waiting for the book, I began trying something similar to the cute framed pic too 🙂

Hope it turns out good so I can show it to you 🙂

Have a beautiful day!

Life is good, enjoy the little things…

Good morning,

How are you today? I’ve been missing you these days…life is running so fast that I have barely time to breathe…

I want to begin this post by thanking you all for your birthday wishes and your sweet words…It was a special birthday this year because of you all my blogland friends 🙂

THANK YOU from the bottom of my heart!

Talking about hearts, I’ve been doing some…

stuffed with lavender…

mmmmh…smelling sooo good that I want to make more and more and hang them everywhere around the house …

I want to show you also this cute handmade cushion I could not resist buying…

Isn’t it lovely with all those tiny buttons and small details ?

and this cute-brown-balls border?

and it has a beautiful sewed quote on it : Life is good, enjoy the little things ! (The title of this post) That is one I should remember always 😉

I love having all kind of handmade cushions on my sofas … I have a problem with cushions…I keep making them and buying them 🙂

and the granny blanket you see on the right side of this pic is the one I am crocheting right now (will talk about it in another post 😉 )

And finally before leaving you some hooky stuff made this week…

I finished the cover for the round stool to go with the orange cushion and the paintings…

The colors on these pics are a little strange I don’t know why…

But “live” they are warm and happy … I should take other pics when the light is better …

Time to go now… play a little with the girls before lunch time 😉

Thank you for your visit today!

Have a great week end!
